UCKL1
Description
The UCKL1 (uridine-cytidine kinase 1 like 1) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 20.
Uridine-cytidine kinase-like 1 is an enzyme produced by the UCKL1 gene in humans.
This protein may play a role in increasing UTP levels, which are necessary for cell transformation and rapid cell growth.
UCKL1 is also known as UCK1L, URKL1.
